Sculptra

[edit]

The article looked pretty good; seemed reasonably npov so I removed the advert tag and wikified it a bit. Cheers, OhNoitsJamie Talk 16:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Speech AND Language Pathology

[edit]

So I suppose the one thing I won't help w/ is proofreading. Thanks for fixing the title and my apologies for that.

Cheers, -RJ1001 04:45, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Hahaha. I am afraid I am rather good at proofreading which is why most of my wikipedia contributions have been typo corrections. Absolutely no worries and in fact I really appreciate your proactive organizing. Thanks muchly for writing up the merge proposal... a terrific idea, and hopefully someone else will come by to comment some time. I might even drop some notes on the talk pages of some of the earlier contributors if I have a moment. Another thing: I noticed that there is a phoniatrics page too. I am not sure if that should be merged too. What do you think? --Slp1 02:17, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice catch--seems like this topic is strewn all about the place. To be quite honest, I had never heard the term "phoniatrics." Looking at the entry and a dictionary of mine, it seems appropriate to merge as well. In addition, I found the synonymous term "phoniatry"--thankfully it has no article, but it should be a redirect. This lengthens the list of redirects that need to be made (the nation-specific one you've already made+phoniatrics+phoniatry). I've placed the appropriate flags on Phoniatrics. We'll see what happens.

Okay, well it seems like we have 1 comment now, thanks to your message!!! I have left messages for another 11, people who have made substantive contributions to the articles in the last while and who still seem to be active. Maybe a few others will give their opinions too! In the meantime I notice that the Speech-Language Pathology is lifted entirely from the American Speech and Hearing Association website, [[1]] with no permission, I presume. It may make the process simpler in a way!

Have a happy Labour Day weekend.

Medicine nav bar

[edit]

Hi, I'm not clear why you are lumping nursing, dentistry, etc. in on the physician navigation bar. These are separate professions. If you are going to do something like that, you need to treat them equally with physicians and list each specialty, which would be cumbersome. I'll go ahead and remove nurse and nurse practitioner from the list. -THB 02:34, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks for the reply. My view is that the nav bar is for the medical profession. There's also a medicine portal. There's a health portal that includes nursing and I started working on a nursing portal last week. No need to blur the lines between the professions. Traditionally medicine has dominated the health care field but in numbers there are a lot more nurses, not to mention other professionals and paraprofessionals. I suppose you could do a separate nav bar for all the health professions together giving each of them equal weight but I don't see a purpose in that as there is already a category for it. -THB 04:46, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why not to merge Cardio / Vascular / Thoracic surgery categories.

[edit]

Hi. I added a comment on Talk:Cardiothoracic_Surgery you might be interested in regarding splitting cardiothoracic surgery into cardiac and thoracic surgery. From reading your to do list, it sounds like you have the same opinion as myself. I have started editing some of the cardiac surgery pages and I'm hoping to edit a lot more in the near future.

I wanted to know if you (or any friends of yours) are interested in dermatology, and would be willing to help me with the WikiProject Medicine/Dermatology task force? kilbad (talk) 08:58, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Dermatologic surgeon

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Dermatologic surgeon. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Dermatologist. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Dermatologist – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. DGG ( talk ) 07:16, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
